Drupady [299]

Answer:

• Coral is far more red than her lips' red

• My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun

• My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground

Explanation:

In this sonnet, the speaker tells us of how his lover is not very attractive but that he loves her more than anything that is more attractive than her.

He talks about how her lips are not very red and how they are far from coral. He says her eyes are not like the sun which means that she doesn't have beautiful eyes.

Finally in a reference to how beautiful people walk as though they float, he talks about how his lover does not have this quality but instead walks on the ground.

A stort shory that illustrate all that gliters is not gold

balandron [24]

Two children were taken to the apple orchard on a fine day with their family. They picked a lot of apples, and had them all in a basket once they went home. Once at home, the parents told the children to each choose and apple to eat. The first child chose a glossy apple with a brilliant skin, which had no marks or dents. The second child chose a duller looking apple, with a couple of dents and some bruises. The first child bit into their Apple, only to find a worm had been their first. The worm left a tunnel in the Apple, and the child discarded the Apple. The second child bit into their Apple to find that it was very sweet, and had no worm inside. The children were careful about picking their apples from then on.

myrzilka [38]

Answer: The national government consisted of a unicameral (one-house) legislature (often called the Confederation Congress); there was no national executive or judiciary. Delegates to Congress were appointed by the state legislatures, and each state had one vote. The Articles of Confederation came into effect on March 1, 1781, after being ratified by all 13 states.

Explanation:

STRENGTH OF ARTICLES OF CONFEDERATION.

(1) The Government successfully waged a war for independence against the British.

(2) The Government successfully negotiated to put an end to the American Revolution in the Treaty of Paris, signed in 1783.

(3) Government granted the free inhabitants of each state “all the privileges and immunities of free citizens in the several states.”

(4) Government established the Departments of Foreign Affairs, War, Marine, and Treasury.

WEAKNESS OF ARTICLE OF CONFEDERATION

(1) One vote was allocated for each state, despite the size of its population.

(2) No national court system was established to protect the rights of U.S. citizens.

(3) No executive branch was established to enforce laws.

(4) Congress had no power to print money, therefore each state developed its own

currency.

(5) Congress was unable to impose taxes; it could only borrow money on credit.
